This cannot be true.

I'm pretty certain Canada has its own surfeit of forty-something insurance brokers.

I've taken the Canadian immigration test.

It didn't go well.

Really? I'm surprised.

[Toby Gymshorts]

You've met me (as has WOM).

The answer, when I’m doubt, is Paul Henderson, 1972.

Did you do the online points test? If so you do realize it's designed to deter people.

[WOM]

Ah, you meant the points-based 'will I get in' test. I thought you meant the Canadian citizenship test.

Is this current round of Johnson v EU just both sides running down the clock while pretending that there is still a negotiation in play?

[Sporting]

Just part of Johnson's election/erection campaign.

In a sign of our fast moving times - Rory no longer a Tory, Rory walks, etc.

His demise won't leave much more of a trace than his sudden rise did in the summer, and now he can go on and be baffled by the modern world elsewhere. His constituency comes up to within a few hundred yards of my house so he's often knocking around locally. It's safe as houses for the Tories so it is a big prize for one of their rising stars, or someone who wants to flee a marginal for a safer bet.

[Gangster Octopus]

He's running scared; he knows that three Labour voters have just moved into Penrith...

[Capybara]

He's standing for Mayor of London!

edit: oh, I didn't read the article.

[Etienne]

He loves a bit of publicity doesn't he?

[George C.]

Millennial 'snowflake'?

[Walt Flanagans Dog]

He loves a bit of publicity doesn't he?

He's the Second Coming, descending from up high (the Cumbrian fells that until five minutes ago he was so fond of) to save the grebos the crusties and the goths, with a big shout out to the Poplar massive. He introduced the plastic bag tax dontcha know, and brought peace to a prison. Cleared out 30,000 truck loads of garbage from Kabul. No wonder he got smacked off his tits in a field, he probably needed a lie down after that shift.

I presume Johnson's shitey proposal is called "A Fair and Reasonable Compromise" because "A Modest Proposal" would have been a bit too on the nose.

Bonnie Greer talking sense

Indeed, such has been the reaction here, we'd practically give her honorary citizenship.

[Etienne]

Interesting, Government submissions to court in Scotland say they WILL apply for an extension if they don't get a deal by the 19th. Not entirely in keeping with their public pronouncements.
